After Action Report
The Wizards snuck past the Hawks 111-107. Ugly basketball, but the Wizards did just enough. Wizards' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Wizards owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Wizards locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
